J.D. Nelson's flora and fauna, Lewis Carroll revival, a fractal fish, dolphin ridge, and a brain on bolts...

 the gamble of the gloss or gloos


peach was a settler on a magnetty little kow earth

that apple is the chain of the normal hum

                your old eclipse

                a wooden why

scrappo lion is the building of the head

the elf of the grass


to sleep with that feather

the same famished wool to be the wolf


the fractal fish

skipped rock sun is a spoon



the barn nabbers of the breakfast welty


the slot or sloot of the earth is a baby boar

the head of the anything cult


a message from the grocer

the wolf is a patient head


the first number one of the valley

standing with the pressure tanks on dolphin ridge


a sack of sharp pieces

the wall of the sinking thorax


downstream from the galaxy

a new model of the earth ready for waterworks


to warm the cold earth on this morning

the macaroni was a gel of the famous winter


                    a western yes

                    a slotted swoon


to name a canopy of barn owls

now for the earth to weigh in on the functions




to creep with the creatures



helio whipple

        bee whipple


the window of earth

a hammer of the bang-bang


the paper bag walking

I have the brain on bolts


that sharing cloud is my friend

the grown plant needs a lift to the soil expo


walking here using the hands this time

a clean rose to be the hello


on the level of the green goose

a little bugg knows how to land
